5. Here, you'll have an opportunity to set up recovery options. Recovery options are helpful if you
forget your password or if someone tries to access your account. If you don't want to set up
recovery options at this time, click Done.

6. Your account will be created, and the Google welcome page will appear.

Just like with any online service, it's important to choose a strong password—in other words, one that is

Signing in to your account


When you irst create your account, you will be automatically signed in. Most of the time, however, you'll
need to sign in to your account and sign out when you're done with it. Signing out is especially important
if you're using a shared computer (for example, at a library or of ice) because it prevents others from
viewing your emails.

To sign in:
1. Go to www.gmail.com.
2. Type your user name (your email address) and password, then click Sign in.

To sign out:
In the top-right corner of the page, locate the circle that has your irst initial (if you've already selected an
avatar image, it will show the image instead). To sign out, click the circle and select Sign out.
